Description:
------------
Building PHP 7.3 against PCRE2/git

	which pcre2-config
		/usr/local/bin/pcre2-config
	pcre2-config --version
		10.34-RC1

php configure fails

	...
	checking for PCRE2 10.30 or greater... ./configure: line 19557: test: 1034-RC1: integer expression expected
	...

in 'configure',

           ...
           PCRE2_CONF=$PHP_PCRE_REGEX/bin/pcre2-config
             ...
             PCRE2_VER=`$PCRE2_CONF --version`
19557        if test "`echo $PCRE2_VER | sed 's,\.,,g'`" -lt 1030; then
             ...

The problem's in the PCRE2 version string -- the configure step chokes on the "-RC1" in its version test.

-	19557        if test "`echo $PCRE2_VER | sed 's,\.,,g'`" -lt 1030; then
+	19557        if test "`echo $PCRE2_VER | sed 's,-.*,,g' | sed 's,\.,,g'`" -lt 1030; then


does the trick

	...
	checking for PCRE2 10.30 or greater... 10.34-RC1
	...

Thanks!  The fix would go to config0.m4[1].  I'm not sure whether
we should apply the fix, though, since PHP 7.4 dropped support for
pcre2-config in favor of pkg-config which is already supported by
PHP 7.3.  So having a properly pgk-config would be necessary in
the near future anyway.

Above pull request should fix this. PHP 7.3 and PCRE already use pkg-config otherwise...
